Our own crew cleans gutters in Georgetown, every downspout flushed and flow-tested, leaves hauled away, and photos of every run before we leave. The price comes from the number of stories, the size of the house and how much tree cover is over the roof, and the number we give you on the phone is the number on the invoice. Most of our customers book in the spring and fall, and we have been doing it that way on our jobs for years.
Quoted from stories, size and tree cover, over the phone, with nothing added once the crew is on the roof.
The price for gutter cleaning in Georgetown KY depends on stories, square footage and what is sitting in the gutters. We quote it over the phone or by text from those three things, and the number we quote is the number we charge. Some companies price gutter maintenance by the linear foot, which lands in a similar place once you do the math, but we give homeowners one number for the whole house, and that is the number on the invoice.
On our jobs, a third story or a roof too steep to walk is the biggest change to a quote. A walk-out basement or a sloped lot raises the effective height of the roofline, so the back run sits farther up than the front suggests. Gutters that nobody has opened in years come out packed, and the crew has to clean out compacted material first, which takes longer than a light leaf load. A twig wedged in a downspout elbow can hold back a whole run, and a joint with a leak needs a second look before we call it clear. Gutter guards we have to lift, reseat and clean underneath add time too. Downspout flushing, flow testing and haul-off are part of the cleaning and maintenance visit and never billed as extras. Haul-off carries the material away from your home. If something changes the job, you hear it before work starts, never on the invoice.
Our work here is mostly houses with a few trees and a couple of stories, but the heavy tree cover jobs are where the quote moves most, because the material is denser and a clog forms faster. Whatever your lot looks like, the fastest way to get your gutters priced is to call (866) 435-6328 for an estimate or text us a photo of the front of the house, and we will tell you what we see from the photo and the three things we ask about.
| One story | Two stories | Three stories or steep | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Under 1,500 sq ft | from $150 | from $185 | from $240 |
| 1,500 to 2,500 sq ft | from $165 | from $215 | from $280 |
| Over 2,500 sq ft | from $190 | from $250 | from $325 |
For context, nationally: Angi 2026, US average $168, most $119 to $234, $0.95 to $2.25 per linear foot.
Downspouts flushed and flow-tested, debris hauled, photos of every run. The quote already has all of it in.
Our crew clears every gutter run by hand, not just the stretch you can see from the driveway. Roof valleys and the area above the gutter line are blown clear first, so the next rain does not refill what was just emptied. Every downspout is flushed with water and watched until it runs clear at the bottom; one that will not clear is worked from the top where it can be reached. Where a downspout feeds an underground drain line, the crew checks that water is leaving at the outlet and tells you if it is not; clearing a buried line is a separate job and is quoted before anyone touches it.
Debris goes into bags and leaves with the truck. It is not blown onto the lawn, the deck or next door. The ground is left as it was found.
Before the crew leaves you get photos of every run and every downspout, before and after, on your phone, whether or not you were home. Anything the crew sees that is not a cleaning problem, a hanger pulled loose, a seam dripping, a run sitting flat, is photographed and reported, not repaired and not sold on the spot.
What can change the number, and you hear it before work starts, never on the invoice: a third story or a roof too steep to walk; gutters that have not been touched in years; guards that have to come off and go back on.
Twice a year for most houses: once after the spring seed and pollen drop, once after the last leaves fall.
Most of our customers book two cleanings a year, once in late spring after the seed and pollen drop, and once in late fall after the last leaves come down. Across Kentucky the spring visit falls in late May to June, and that is when we open gutters with seeds, seed casings and pollen paste packed into the downspout elbows. In the fall it is the leaves and debris, and the wet mat is the real problem because it holds rainwater against the gutter and then freezes. Our crew has seen runs sag and pull loose by March on houses that skipped the fall clean. Here, heavy rainfall lands in April, May and July, and a clog that sits through that stretch is where structural damage and fascia rot start. The first freeze here is hard on a clogged system, so getting the system clean before winter is where most of the damage gets prevented.
Under heavy tree cover, we see customers on every three to four months, because needles and grit pack clogged downspouts between visits and a twice-a-year schedule is not enough. Near a busy road or a construction site, the grit load goes up the same way. A house with few or no trees usually needs one visit a year in late fall, though the surface still needs a look in the spring. Landscape beds below the eave take the overflow first, so a clog shows up as a washed-out mulch line before it shows up anywhere else. Guarded gutters need less frequent visits, but the grit that sits on top of a guard is what turns into the paste that blocks the run. Whatever the tree cover, a clean system with regular gutter cleaning keeps water away from the foundation and helps protect your home from water damage.
After the first visit we tell you which tier your lot actually needs, based on what came out of the gutters and how the runs were flowing. Most houses settle into the twice-a-year rhythm, and the ones under heavy canopy move up from there. If you want to keep your gutters clear between visits, tell us, and the crew will clean your gutters on the schedule you pick.
Water over the edge rots the board behind the gutter first. Everything after that is slow, and slow is what a policy excludes.
The three signs. Water pouring over the front edge in rain instead of out of the downspout. A run that sags, sits low or has pulled away from the fascia. Plants growing out of the trough. Any one of them means the gutter is full.
What happens next. Water that cannot drain sits in the trough and spills behind it. The fascia board rots, then the soffit. Water backs up under the first course of shingles and shows up as a ceiling stain. Siding stains and swells. Below, the overflow cuts a channel at the foundation and finds the basement. The wet debris itself weighs enough to pull the gutter off the house. Standing water breeds mosquitoes; dry debris houses wasps. Where winters freeze, the trapped water becomes an ice dam at the eave and lifts the shingles from underneath.
Why your policy will not pay. Homeowners insurance generally does not cover water damage traced to clogged gutters. Carriers class gutter cleaning as routine maintenance, and damage from skipped maintenance as preventable neglect, which a standard policy excludes. A limb that tears a gutter off in a storm is sudden and accidental and is usually covered; a fascia board that rotted over two years is not. This is general information, not insurance advice; read your policy or ask your agent.
Guards stop leaves. They do not stop needles, seeds, grit or the paste they turn into. The job gets shorter, not gone.
Yes, guarded gutters still need cleaning, less often, and it is a different job: clearing what sits on top of the guard and checking that water is actually getting in, rather than scooping out the trough. Mesh and screen guards hold whole leaves off. Pine needles thread through, seed casings and pollen mat on top, roof grit settles underneath, and once that mat is wet, rain runs over it and off the front edge. The gutter is empty and the water never went in.
Guards earn their keep under big leafy trees and on roofs too high to want to climb. They do not end maintenance, whatever the installer said. Our crew lifts the panels, clears underneath, flushes the downspouts and reseats the guards; tell us what is on the house when you get the quote and it is priced as a guarded system, which usually runs shorter than an open one.
Under an hour on most houses. Nobody has to be there, and the photos arrive either way.
The crew calls the day before with an arrival window and again when they are on the way. This Old House puts a professional gutter cleaning at 30 minutes to an hour on a typical home; bigger houses, steep roofs and gutters left for years run longer. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work; the crew does not come inside. Before they arrive: side gate unlocked, cars off the driveway if runs face it, pets inside while ladders are up. Ladder stand-offs keep the ladder off the gutter lip and the siding. After: photos of every run and downspout before the truck leaves, and an invoice that matches the quote.
Send us a photo or a short video in the rain. You hear what it is before anyone talks about money.
Still overflowing. A gutter that is clean and still sheets water over the edge in rain has a slope, capacity or downspout-size problem, not a debris problem. If that happens after a cleaning, send us a photo or a short video of it in the rain and we tell you what it actually is; we do not sell a second cleaning for a slope problem.
The number. The price quoted on the phone is the price on the invoice. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear it and agree to it before they start, never after.
Your house. Stand-offs on every ladder so nothing rests on the gutter lip, and screens and downspout extensions go back where they were.
Payment. The balance is charged when the job is finished and the photos are on your phone. Some dates take a small booking fee to hold the slot, and you hear about it before you book.
The whole city and the towns around it, booked by phone or text from the nearest crew.
Our crew works across Georgetown and surrounding areas from the nearest base, and we have cleaned gutters on Georgetown homes, including the older houses where the gutter system is still the original work. Booking our gutter services starts with a quote by phone or text, from stories, size and tree cover, and a photo of the house front if that is easy for you. We call before we come, and nobody needs to be home for an exterior job. The gutter cleaning process runs the same way on every visit. The two busy windows on our calendar are late spring and early fall, when most gutter cleaning services in Georgetown get booked, so if you want a particular week, call early in the season. Call (866) 435-6328 to get on the calendar. Once you book, the crew arrives in the window we give you and works from the gutters down, and leaves the ground clean, so the job runs on a predictable schedule.
Debris removal is included, and the crew bags what it pulls out. We clean residential and commercial properties, and residential properties get the same kind of visit whether the house is new or has been standing for a long time. If you are not sure whether your gutter system needs a full clean or just a surface check, describe what you see and we will tell you what we would do.
The number comes from stories and size, and a homeowner gets it by phone or text. We do not quote a figure without knowing those two things and the tree cover over the roof. The number we give is the number on the invoice.
Across Kentucky the spring visit falls in late May to June, after the seed drop, and the fall visit in late October to November, after the last leaves. Freeze risk is real in winter, so a blockage that was never cleared in the fall has little room to drain before the cold sets in.
Most slots come up within the week, and we confirm a date when you call. We do not promise same-day unless the crew has an open slot that morning.
No. Our crew works outside, does not come inside, and leaves every run clean. Photos of every run and downspout reach your phone before the truck leaves. Leave the side gate unlocked and keep pets inside while the ladders are up.
Yes. Our crew flushes the gutters and downspouts, then checks drainage and water flow at the outlet until the water runs clean. If a line runs underground and is not draining, we tell you and quote clearing it separately, because that is a different job.
Yes. On our jobs the guards catch the big leaves, but seed pods, pollen and grit settle on top and turn into a paste that blocks the run. We lift the panels, clear underneath, reseat them, and the run is clean when we leave.
A rain gutter that is clean and still sheets water over the edge in rain has a slope or downspout-size problem, not a buildup problem. Text us a short video of it in the rain and we will tell you what it is, without selling a second cleaning.
It should not. If the crew finds something that changes the job, you hear it and agree to it before they start, never after. The quote over the phone is the number on the invoice.
Stories, size and a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
